Healing generations forward and back through conscious parenting
Kate discovered Dr. Shefali's conscious parenting approach just in time to raise her two daughters free from inherited trauma. The work not only transformed her parenting but also healed her relationship with her own parents, creating generational healing in both directions.
Dr. Shefali's work is truly transformational.
As a mother of two little girls, I'm so grateful to have access to her revolutionary concepts about conscious parenting so that I've been able to start early allowing my girls to be free to be themselves without me layering them with my own childhood traumas and expectations that have nothing to do with who they truly are.
Not only have I found her work impactful as a parent, but reading her books has helped me heal myself as a daughter in really profound ways. I've grown more compassionate toward my own parents, bringing me closer to them, as well. I can see how shifting the way I daughter and parent as a result of Dr. Shefali's work is healing generations forward and generations back in my lineage and I feel like grateful doesn't even begin to cover how I feel about this incredible gift.
